Our CICS region is shared between QA1 and test. Can that be a reason that QA1 is down while test is up and the file is in use with the same name in both the regions?

Thanks Robert and Anuj. Appreciate your explnations.

Thanks enrico. I have read about DFHCSDUP but it does not talk about the status anywhere?

if CICS is down why would somebody care about the status of a file ?

Ideally the file should have been closed but we got a file open error when we tested it, so we wanted to know it.

I am trying and learning with that also.

To investigate a probem, I have to see if a given file is defined or not in a CICS region. But the region is not available and is down. Now is there a way that I can know if the file is defined to the region or not??

Hello All,

I am using file-aid first time and learning how to use XREF? My team ates are not very familiar with this concept of file aid. Can you please help me understanding and using it?

Appreciate your help.
